I see the city lights all around me
Everyone's obscure
Ten million people each with their problems
Why should anyone care?

And in your eyes I can see

I am not just a man, vastly lost in this world
Lost in a sea of faces
Your body's the bread, your blood is the wine
Because you traded your life for mine

Sometimes my life, it feels so trivial
Immersed in the greatness of space
Yet somehow you still find the time for me
It's then you show me your love

And in your eyes I can see
And in your arms I will be, yea

I am not just a man, vastly lost in this world
Lost in a sea of faces
Your body's the bread, your blood is the wine
Because you traded your life for mine

If only my one heart
Was all you'd gain from all it cost
Well I know you would have still been a man
With a reason to willingly offer your life

I am not just a man, vastly lost in this world
Lost in a sea of faces
Your body's the bread, your blood is the wine
Because you traded your life for mine

I am not just a man, vastly lost in this world
Lost in a sea of faces
Your body's the bread, your blood is the wine
Because you traded your life for mine
Just one in a million faces

I love Christian songs but again--really who are they singing about?

To me it's obvious.  Christian music can be many different things to different people.  Third Day, Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, el al, have done whole albums on praise and worship.  One of my first Christian CDs is by a group called Starfield.  It was in the Worship section of the Berean Bookstore I was in.  They are exceptional and I bought all their CDs, but they don't get as much airplay as Sanctus Real, who they sound somewhat similar to.  I bought Switchfoot albums before I new they were Christian.  On one of their DVDs it shows them praying together before going out on stage.  Music is personal and if the lyrics bother you, maybe you should listen to more traditional hymns.

As for me, when I consider music outside of CCM, I tend towards instrumental Jazz, some Classical, some blues, some hard rock from the '60s, '70s and '80s, alternative rock from the '90s and '00, but not current heavy metal or pop.  I hate pop music and always have.  I do not feel these are uplifting to me, although they may be to some.  [As a child, I would go to sleep listening to Black Gospel music, much to my mother's displeasure.  This was pre-rock 'n roll.]  Personally, my music tastes are somewhat eclectic.  :)

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
